36 Weeks

The tree decal is absolutely perfect!! Love it! Also we bought the crib bedding!

Dresser/changing table (I need to organize it!) and Maddie's name blocks put up on the wall.

We took maternity pictures last week. 3 of my favorites!...

How far along? 36 weeks

Maternity clothes? Yep. My options are getting pretty limited but
with only one month left I’m not buying anything new. I’ll make do with what I
have.

Stretch marks? Still none on my stomach surprisingly.

Sleep: Not too bad. I’ve been exhausted lately so when I finally
lay down I pass out pretty quickly. Just wake up for trips to the bathroom and
heartburn sometimes.

Best moment these last 2 weeks: My mom and I put up the tree decal
in the nursery and it looks amazing; I can’t stop going in there and looking at
how cute everything is! The nursery is coming together, I just need to get some
more shelves and organizational items.

Miss Anything? Being comfortable. Only a few more weeks to go
though!!

Movement: Yep! She hasn’t really slowed down much even though she’s
getting bigger. She still flips all over and her elbows and knees poke out my
belly. I swear she’s gonna bust out of my stomach one of these days!

Food Cravings: Spicy foods and chocolate. (not together). I ate a
whole bag of jalapeño chips and I really need to get some chocolate ice
cream!

Belly Button in or out? Still even, but it’s pretty weird looking
now.

Wedding rings on or off? Off, and the substitute ring doesn’t fit
anymore either. I found an old thumb ring that fits pretty well. Poor chubby
fingers!

Happy or Moody most of the time: Happy! I can’t believe it’s less
than one month til her due date! I have everything I “need” for her arrival.
Now I just need to get into nesting mode and start cleaning our house like
crazy.

Looking forward to: Enjoying the last few weeks without a baby, b/c
I know our lives are going to be drastically changed (for the better of
course!!) Getting all the final preparations ready and looking forward to
meeting our little girly soon!
